I did the shutdown and start-up (through I usually do this through the Sevices applet) so it took me a bit. Queries returned the same results as before. Ed ... View more

Thanks for jumping in.. Oracle 11.2.0.1 ArcGIS 10.1 SP1 Everything's on one machine.. Windows 7 The query returns one row.  MAJOR 10 MINOR 1 etc. Ed ... View more

A little more information on this. There are four datasets in the database.  Only one of them has this problem.   The other four seem to be OK.  The dataset with the problem had a participating feature class present in an ArcMap session when the computer crashed. Ed ... View more

For what its worth, on a suggestion I tried deleting my Normal.mxt... which sounded plausible but did not solve the problem. Ed ... View more

Here's some more information on this problem.  I gave a copy of the FGDB to a colleague to test.  She was able to successfully complete the "Buffer' operation on the same class I've been trying -- though my attempts always fail. We're both running ArcMap 10.2.1.3497.  Both running the Geoprocessing tool in the foreground. I've tried opening a new map document and adding only this one layer to it.  Buffer still fails. Since it works for my colleague running the same software on a different machine it would seem there's something about my particular environment....  hmmmmm.... Ed ... View more

Curtis - Thanks for the suggestion.  I ran check geometry on the class and its all ok.  I'm running as an administrator. You mentioned an article on topology tools failing but was there a link to this? Thanks again, Ed ... View more

Mark - Thanks for the suggestion.  However, I don't have background processing enabled.  It tries to process right in front of me.. and fails pretty quickly at that. Ed ... View more

crafty (Hope its ok to use that name) - I would love to buy you a beer if I ever get the chance.   The network build completed with the results I was expecting/hoping for. Thanks a million! Ed ... View more

This is not a production instance... I'll give it a try and keep you posted. Thanks again! Ed ... View more

One further point of information that I just realized may be important.  There are two datasets in this instance.  One for gas and one for electric.  I had previously successfully created a geometric network for the gas dataset -- as the gas schema owner.  The error is now occurring when I try to create a network in the electric dataset.. as either the electric schema owner or as SDE. Is it possible that I now don't have permission to tables created when the first network was built? Ed ... View more
